It is standard security practice for the password to be omitted, even if you're logged in.

It probably doesn't actually store the password on the console, merely an authentication token. It's standard practice not to store the password on the client side.

The wiiu uses a hash to store the password, so the 3ds probably does the same. It's in the preserved.dat on the wiiu, not sure where on the 3ds.

I know the wiiu has password hash, but iirc, the vita does store the password in the registry, so you can never tell. However, based on that, it's probably a hash.
